The New Moon actress paired her decadent lace skirt with a shimmery sheer top and peekaboo bra. For extra spice, she accessorized with a cute ribbon belt and sophisticated pair of lace pumps. Striking.

American Apparel Maternity: Ga Ga or Gag?

LilSugar — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 04:00:14 -0700

Not all expecting mamas are willing to surrender their closet to A Pea in the Pod. Fashion forward ladies can decorate themselves and their bump with American Apparel's edgy and funky maternity clothes - even if the brand is simply labeling belly friendly clothes already in production as "maternity." Regardless, one mama-to-be's dream may be another's worst nightmare. Neon spandex unitard, anyone? So tell us, does the hipster take on pregnancy apparel appeal to you?

A Fabby Halloween: Michael Jackson

FabSugar — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 07:50:22 -0700

No doubt, the King of Pop (RIP) will be a popular choice for Halloween this year. Who doesn't want to emulate such saucy style and cool character? Channeling your inner Micheal Jackson requires androgynous dressing: a white tee, loose cropped trousers, a drummer jacket - local thrift stores are filled with treasures from this era. Don't forget essential accessories like white socks, a black fedora, and trademark silver sequin glove. I'm bad, you know it . . .

FabSugar — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Most people hate the rain, but not sosupersam. The LA cutie welcomed the inclement weather in a stylish, splash-proof outfit. The green anorak is beyond rad and I fancy her cozy, oversized tube scarf. Like Bilson, she kept her toes dry in a pair of black Hunter wellies - smart!

Here's what she has on:

Top: American Apparel
Scarf: American Apparel
Tights: H&M
Jacket: H&M
Skirt: Unknown
Boots: Hunter
Lipstick: MAC Cyber

Congrats to sosupersam!

A Fabby Halloween: Flashdance Fever

FabSugar — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 12:02:22 -0700

Who can forget Jennifer Beals's sexy moves in '80s cult classic Flashdance - remember that water scene? Sizzle. She alone might have been responsible for the flurry of females dashing to get themselves an oversize sweatshirt and leggings - I know I sure did. Hone in her ultra-old-school vibe with the right accessories: red pointy-toe heels, a bodysuit, leg warmers, dangly earrings, and a permed '80s hairdo. What a feeling!

15 Ways to Add Whimsy to Your Wardrobe

FabSugar — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 07:50:22 -0700

Whimsical, playful, comical, eccentric - all ways to describe giving into fanciful notions. Polka dots, bows, sequins, animals, and ruffles are all ways to amuse yourself. I have been in a whimsical fashion mood lately - perhaps Louis Vuitton's bunny ears, coupled with Mary-Kate and Ashley's lace ears, spawned it. And it's so much fun! I encourage all you fashion fans to dabble from time to time. Just one disclaimer: limit your whimsical item to one or two at a time, unless you to want to scream fashion freak.

A Fabby Halloween: Rihanna

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 05:50:22 -0700

We have long admired Rihanna's distinct style. We've featured her since she broke out onto the scene - she has since become an icon and an avid fashion show front-rower. One of my coolest New York Fashion Week celeb sightings was Rihanna, at Fashion's Night Out. She endured a dramatic first half of the year, broke free, and appears to be exploring herself and her fashion sense. You never know what she'll try next, but there are some Rihanna-centric pieces if you want to don the singer's style this Halloween. Severe shoulders, bold black, piled-on jewelry, miniskirts, rings galore, and funky shades. As for your Rihanna wig - don't dye it just yet, you never know what concoction she'll come up with next.

Trend Alert: Bubble Shorts

FabSugar — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Nicole Richie is back, with a fashion vengeance. Not that she ever left, really. Leave it to Nicole to bust out bubble shorts just weeks after having her second babe. Here she is leaving a Selena Gomez concert in LA looking every bit the fashion-forward mom. If you've got the gams, go for the bubbles. Make sure you leave everything else easy and sleek, like Nicole, and the color palette simple. Tossing a vest on is a smart addition, and heels will maximize your leg appeal.
